Overview of the Nanotechnology Industry: Drivers & Demand
2
What is Nanotechnology? Size does matter!
3
Nanotechnology: A Definition Design and creation of functional materials, structures, devices, and systems through direct control of matter on the nanometer length scale. Exploitation of novel phenomena and properties on this length scale Length scale is defined as 100 nm or smaller A nanometer = 1/100,000 of the width of a human hair

Nanotechnology: Industry Size Global R&D funding: $9.6 billion –Corporate:$4.5 billion –Government:$4.6 billion –VC:$0.5 billion >109 Start-ups have secured VC funding of $1.1 billion since 1998 –40% nanobio –41% electronics & semiconductors –14% specialty chemicals & nanomaterials
7
Nanotechnology: Industry Size 41 publicly-traded companies >300 private companies 500 nano-consumer products on the market 3,996 U.S. “nano” patents Global R&D Funding by region: –U.S.= $4.0 billion –Asia = $3.4 billion –Europe = $2.1 billion Projected revenue for nano-enabled products –$30 billion (2005) –$60 billion (2009)

Typical Nanotech Company University spin-out Initially funded by industry-savvy “angel” investors linked to university Small number of employees (3- 10 people) but can grow quickly –50% growth in space within 12 months Small number of VC’s focused on nanotech industry Many major international companies interested in partnering as technology has broad applications
17
Nanotechnology Summary Nanotechnology is about SIZE: –< 100 nm Strong government backing but some concerns on public safety and risks Nanotech industry is really several industries with size as common denominator: –Nanobio resembles biotech industry –MEMS resembles semi-conductor and sensor industry –Nanomaterials resembles chemical industry –Nanoenergy resembles renewable energy industry Space needs for each company will focus on industry segment!
